What: Some 100 years ago, a walnut tree was planted on St. Charles Street in Oak Bay. It grew to be a massive, healthy tree until it began splitting down the middle. Its destiny? Firewood, of course! That’s when oneTree 2017 stepped in. A collaboration of artists each received a portion of the tree, and together are celebrating life and demonstrating the economic value of a singular tree. From vases, to whale sculptures, to tables, bowls, and trinkets: what these artists have done with just one tree will blow your mind. Check out the video here!

What: Today, the Emanu-El synagogue in downtown Victoria is a beautifully restored landmark and a National Historic Site. But it was nearly lost forever a generation ago, when a move was afoot to sell the old building and relocate to the suburbs. In a re-creation of these events, writer Sid Tafler tells a story of love, loss, regret, conflict and healing among eight members of a family–and their lawyer. Sam is in a pitched battle with his son Morris over the sale of the synagogue that threatens to tear apart their family and community.

What: An evening to celebrate Nic Whitehouse’s debut EP Solace. Joined by friends to play his original music from the album, as well as unrecorded tracks, and a few covers by some of his favourite artists.
